drew
attention to the recent information announced by the American journalist Tucker
Carlson that the administration of the former US President Joe Biden, at the suggestion of the former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, discussed preparing
an assassination attempt on the Russian leader. He suggested addressing American
parliamentarians for further comments.

The Chairman of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation of the eighth convocation. Elected in single mandate constituency № 163 (Saratov constituency - Saratov Oblast)
emphasized that Tucker Carlson’s information, who is a US citizen, a well-known journalist involved in political processes and has his
own sources of information, require serious consideration and should be
thoroughly investigated.
“We will appeal to the Congress of the United States of America with a request to investigate this situation. It could lead to a global conflict. You yourself understand what it means to discuss the issue of killing the president of any country, in this case the President of the Russian Federation. We must take this seriously,” said Vyacheslav Volodin.
“It is unacceptable to discuss such issues at the state level with the participation of the Secretary of State, the President of the United States of America. What does this mean? The country that considers itself a model of democracy is led by ordinary criminals, murderers. A day has passed since Tucker Carlson's statement, and there is no reaction. Neither Blinken nor Biden have denied it,” he stressed.
“As for the legislation of the United States of America, this crime can get them to the electric chair. Therefore, they should prove that they live in a democratic country, a law-governed state, and we will demand this on our part. Let them send Biden together with Blinken to the electric chair, then the whole world will see that this is democracy. And if there is no reaction, then keep silent and do not teach anyone,” added the Chairman of the State Duma.
“We will do everything to protect the President and our country, because we consider any challenges and threats to the President as a threat to our country. And this means that the response must be tough and immediate,” emphasized Vyacheslav Volodin.
This decision was supported by all political factions of the State Duma.

proposed to send this document to the UN as well.
“We not only support, we insist that investigations must be conducted. But we should remember that no one has ever managed to reach any agreements with terrorists. Therefore, we must fight them decisively and harshly. Then there will be results,” added Gennady Zyuganov.

emphasized that this situation “is the lowest point of agony,
which the outgoing leadership of the United States tried to spread all over the world, including not being ashamed to use the weirdest tool in terms of common
sense — the murder of political opponents.”
“Nord Streams, terrorist
attacks against civilians, numerous, as it turns out, conducted under the leadership of the State Department — these were just the tip of the iceberg.
Now we can no longer ignore it, as we did before, unfortunately,” said the First Deputy Head of the “A Just Russia — For Truth” faction, Oleg Nilov

investigation,” said the Deputy Chairman of the State Duma, First Deputy Head
